Rasmussen Riding School -- January 3-5, 2011

[SledMamma]

Cant wait for the pics and the stories, should be awesome

Having a blast so far: learning lots, falling over lots, eating lots, laughing lots....

FYI- Rasmussen is even more talented in person than he is in his videos. It's absolutely jaw dropping to watch him navigate the trees...

Just heard from them again, some damages today, nothing I'll go into detail about, very socked in. They are headed to the Grizz for a drink and some snacks. All in all a good day of riding.

Rasmussen is heading back towards the US now as he has another clinic to teach on Friday!

I had a great time riding with Bret Rasmussen. I've certainly learned a lot. Bret is an incredibly talented rider. There was a mishap today. A cat lost a ski to a tree. Bret rode it out of the valley with more finesse than anyone else riding a sled with 2 skis!

 

[maxwell]

haha thats a good story. " i can outride you with one ski! "

how does his sled work?

what a great time i just got home and my head is still spinning...maybe because of how late we were up last night!:d
First off thanks to Tyler for the great idea to have Bret come it was a chance of a life time to meet him and just watch him ride, it was so much fun to see the love he has for the sport and the passion to see others love it as much as he does.
The food was great, our cabin and location was beautiful and the overall fun and socializing was one of the best parts... i loved being able to put a face to the name now!
For my first time to the area and going alone it was scary but so rewarding in the end. We laughed, we cried, we got stuck, we stayed up too late and had a great time doing all of it. I went alone and came home with 2 girlfriend, a dozen or so sledding boy friends lol, too much info about bunk-beds(askTyaler) and memories to last a life time.
The kindness of strangers was overwhelming, glen at spindrift, our wonderful tour guides(sorry cant remember there names) from the sled den and all of us pitching in to help each other have the most fun out of our trip.
YES i had a fabulous time and i cant wait to ride with some of you again when you come to sicamous(yes Tyler you can come too)

how does his sled work?

He has 3. The first day he rode a stock 800. The second day he took out his pump gas turbo. I had a chance to ride that one, and it was a blast. He also has a race gas turbo. All of them have a 153 track.

Cmon already tell us a little more or maybe a few more pics,,,i thought thered be all sorts of ranting and raving about this

 

[tantrumpipeline]

wow am I jealous!! super cool idea, let's see more pics, any videos? the schooled videos are like bibles to my friends and I watch them the night before every trip and they actually taught us all alot, guys are impressive

 

[PINKalicious]

to see Bret ride in person was even more amazing then in the video...well worth every penny.
sledmamma has pics and video give her time to work her magic and she will have them up here!

 

[Mikew5j]

Here's a few more pics.

Bret and myself with the days carnage after we all got off the hill. I clipped a small stump with my a-arm but luckily it didn't end up looking like that.

I also have a bunch of video, but I need to do some serious editing.

 

[maxwell]
